NORCAL MASTERS 2019 WORKOUTS AND STANDARDS

Transcription

1 NORCAL MASTERS 2019 WORKOUTS AND Uncommon Movements (Borrowed from CrossFit ): Any movement deemed uncommon, out of the ordinary or used to amend, shorten or change the accepted movement standard or range of motion, including line of action, of any event movement can and will be disallowed. It is the responsibility of the athlete to notify a NCM head judge of any questionable movement before the workout, and it will be up to the head judge to determine if the movement is acceptable. Penalty for dropping small weights: There will be an immediate 10-burpee penalty for any athlete who drops a dumbbell from above knee height in any workout using a dumbbell. This is to protect your bodies, our judges, the equipment, and the floor. DAY ONE (SATURDAY): Workout 1: Cluster Ladder with AMRAP Alternating Dumbbell Pistol Tie-Breaker 12 barbells, lift every 30 seconds (20 seconds to lift, ten seconds to rotate) *Tie-break information: All ties for bars 1-11 will be broken by the number of alternating, weighted pistols an athlete can perform in the time allotted. As soon as an athlete fails at a weight (and decides not to attempt again), he/she can begin completing as many alternating, weighted pistols as possible, for the remainder of the 20-second lifting period. An athlete CAN choose not to try a lift at all and begin a lifting period by going directly into pistols, but only if the athlete successfully lifted the previous barbell (you cannot advance to the next station to do pistols unless you successfully lift the bar).

2 Athletes who get to the FINAL bar and lift it successfully will go directly from the cluster into an AMRAP of thrusters for that bar (do not put bar on the floor after cluster), and that will be the tie-break for the final bar, only. If an athlete forgets to go into the thrusters and drops the barbell, he/she must complete another successful cluster before doing thrusters. Pistols will count as.01 pounds, so that even if a person were to get 50 pistols, he/she would have a total score that is lower than the next barbell amount. In other words, no number of pistols can outscore someone with a heavier barbell lift.

The barbell begins on the ground. The athlete must perform a squat clean, achieving a full squat with hip crease below the top of the knees in the bottom position. Receiving the barbell in the bottom of the squat IS required; a power or split clean followed by a front squat is NOT permitted. The barbell must travel up in one motion to the shoulders and then down into the squat. It is OK for an athlete to pause in the bottom of the squat. The athlete finishes the movement by moving from the bottom of the squat into a thruster, in which the barbell moves from the bottom of the front squat to full lockout overhead. This must be done in a single, continuous movement; athlete cannot pause standing with the barbell in the front rack position before pressing it overhead. The finishing position has the knees, hips and arms fully extended with the barbell stable over the heels. Once the athlete hits the bottom of the squat, there can be no re-bend of the knees and/or hips, and the feet must remain stationary. The bar can stop near the top and be pressed out if necessary, but any descent of the barbell (after upward movement in the thruster has begun) constitutes a no-lift.

3 Any stepping, splitting, repositioning of the feet, re-bending the hips or knees or jerking all constitute a no-lift. Going up on the toes is permitted as long as the feet remain stationary. If an athlete attempts a lift and fails, he/she can try again as many times as desired during the 20-second lifting period. Each rep must begin with the barbell RESTING on the floor. Pistol: Athletes must alternate legs for each repetition; they cannot move from one leg to the other until a successful repetition has been completed on the first leg. The pistol begins with the athlete standing and the hip fully open with the knee fully locked out on the squatting leg. The hip must pass below parallel at the bottom of the repetition, and the non-supporting leg cannot touch the ground until the repetition is completed. The non-supporting foot must be in front of the supporting foot during the entire repetition. Athletes may hold the foot of the non-supporting leg with their hand while performing the one-legged squat. The athlete must hold the dumbbell in one or both hands throughout the entire repetition. The dumbbell can NOT touch any part of the body other than the hands. Please note that judges will be especially strict about opening up hips and knees completely after each rep. Don t short your reps. Rest 2 minutes after Workout 1 Ladder judges will escort athletes from their final barbell station to a soft judge. At the call of "GO" for the lifters at the next station, both the ladder judge and the soft judge will start his/her stopwatch, and the soft judge will escort the athlete outside to complete Workout 2. When the soft judge s watch hits 2 minutes, he/she will reset the stopwatch and then call 3, 2, 1 GO and the time will begin for the run. Note: In cases when a soft judge is unavailable, the ladder judge will also judge the run (and escort the athlete outside), which is why he/she needs to also be timing rest periods, just in case. Workout 2: Run for time (approximately.75 mile) *No time cap necessary bc going one by one after the cluster ladder. Workout 3: Time Cap 16 min 2 ROUNDS for Time: 24m Single arm DB front rack walking Lunges (out 12 m, switch hands, back 12 m) 24 Alt. DB Snatches 24m Single arm DB front rack walking Lunges (out 12 m, switch hands, back 12 m) 24 Toes to Bar 24m Single arm DB front rack walking Lunges (out 12 m, switch hands, back 12 m) 24 DB Snatches

4 DB Weights: Men men 50# # # # Women # # # # Single Arm DB front rack walking lunges: At the top of the rep, the DB must be held with ONE HAND, ONLY in the front rack position, meaning that the DB is in contact with the shoulder and the hand at the same time, all while the hips and knees are fully extended. The handle of the DB does not need to be gripped, but the hand does need to be TOUCHING the DB throughout the entire lunge rep. Elbow does NOT need to be higher than the shoulder. At the bottom of the rep, the athlete s knee must make contact with the ground while the DB remains in the rack position. The athlete MUST pass through the top position in between every lunge step (meaning that hips and knees must open fully in between reps, with DB in the front rack position). If an athlete loses the front rack position during a rep, he/she must move back to the back foot and begin that lunge step again. The athlete begins the first step with both feet behind a line of tape and lunges until both feet cross a line of tape at the 12-meter mark. While on that side of the line, the athlete must switch the DB to the other hand/shoulder in the rack position, with knees and hips fully opened, before starting the first step going back. Athletes can rest the DB on the ground or on any part of their body during times when they are NOT lunging. Alternating DB Snatches: The movement begins with both heads of the dumbbell on the floor. The athlete moves the DB in one upward movement (upward progress cannot stop in the middle of a rep) to the overhead position. At the top, the arm must be completely locked out overhead, with the dumbbell in line with the athlete s heels. The knees and hips must be fully extended with SHOULDERS and DUMBBELL in line above hips (no extreme leaning with bell out super wide). If an athlete widens his/her stance and his/her arm extends out over his feet, he/she must come to a final position with feet under or just wider than shoulders, with DB over shoulders (much like coming back to position after a split jerk). Athletes MUST alternate arms, and two hands cannot touch the dumbbell at the same time when transferring. This means that the DB must be on the ground for a split second in for the

5 transfer between hands. BOTH heads of the DB need to make contact with the ground (though it does not have to settle in place). If you fail a rep on one arm, you must redo that same arm before switching hands. The non-working hand cannot touch the bell or any part of your body during the movement. Toes to Bar: Both feet (any part) must make contact with bar at the same time, inside hands. Heels must break the plane of the bar behind the body at the bottom of each rep, including the first rep. Each rep must start with arms locked out in a dead hang. We will provide j-cups at each station for assistance reaching the pull-up bar for all athletes to use as needed. REST 30 SECONDS AFTER WORKOUT 3, THEN: Workout 4: AMRAP 3 minutes Alternating DB Turkish Get-ups Same Dumbbell weights as in Workout 3. *Starting position is with the DB on the ground with the athlete lying on the floor on his/her back. Back of head must be on the floor while legs are straight and back of heels are touching the floor. *Athlete must stand up with the dumbbell without it touching the body (other than the arm holding it). *One knee must touch the ground on the way up and on the way down. *Standing position is dumbbell in arm locked out overhead, in line with heels, while knees and hips are open. Athletes must show control of DB in their hand before going back down. *Finishing position is the same as starting position above. (Head must touch floor while lying fully down in between reps with bell placed on the floor). You must alternate hands. *Going from floor to standing and back to floor is ONE REP. DAY TWO (SUNDAY): Workout 5: (9 mins) Two-Minute AMRAP x3 Sets with 60 seconds Rest Between each AMRAP #1 9 Power Snatch + 5 burpees over bar #2 6 Power Clean + 7 burpees over bar #3 3 Squat Clean + 9 burpees over bar *Athletes are responsible for changing their own barbell weights. Judges will not assist in any way.

The bar must continue traveling up from the ground to the overhead position, before the athlete dips under the bar. Athletes cannot deadlift into a hang power snatch. Touch-and-go is permitted, but bouncing is not permitted. Judges will carefully watch for athletes lowering the bar before the hips and knees have opened fully. The athlete CANNOT drop the hips lower than the top of the knees at any point in the rep. This MUST be a power movement. The athlete is permitted to drop the barbell from the overhead position in a controlled manner. Power clean: Bar must start on floor and end with elbows in front of the vertical plane of the barbell at the top, with hips and knees fully extended and shoulders above hips. The bar must continue moving upwards once it leaves the ground, until it meets the shoulders. Athletes cannot deadlift into a hang power clean. At the top of the rep, the hips and knees must be fully extended with the elbows in front of the vertical plane of the barbell. Judges will carefully watch for athletes lowering the bar before the hips and knees have opened fully. The athlete CANNOT drop the hips lower than the top of the knees at any point in the rep. This MUST be a power movement. Touch and go is permitted, but bouncing the bar on the ground is not. The athlete is permitted to drop the barbell from shoulder height in a controlled manner. Squat clean: This is a standard squat clean from the ground to the shoulders. The bar must continue moving upwards once it leaves the ground, until it meets the shoulders. Athletes cannot deadlift into a hang power clean. At the top of the rep, the hips and knees must be fully extended with the elbows in front of the barbell. Judges will carefully watch for athletes lowering the bar before the hips and knees have opened fully.
